The members of the public arts collective There Once Was A Rebellion (T.O.W.A.R.), based here in Richmond, VA, recently created a project to fashionably clothe the homeless during the coldest part of the year. They have taken cast-off sweatshirts and screen printed them with new images and the text "I was lost, but now I'm fresh". They then placed them on homemade hangers and left them on the streets of Richmond to be taken. They admonish however, "Although we know it will be tempting, because these sweatshirts will look so fresh on your backs, please if you come across them, try to leave them for the homeless and those who are in more need of them than you probably are." Find out more about T.O.W.A.R. and their upcoming projects HERE.
